Back in 2015, my love for beauty products developed through watching YouTube videos and experimenting on myself. From there, I realized that I could use my newfound skills to apply in the real world since people could actually benefit from them. In 2016, I started applying for jobs and I landed a role at a small beauty company where I happily assisted clients with hair care, skin care and makeup. It was fun while it lasted, but I knew I wanted to do more, so three years later I ended up quitting. My love for the industry was still there but I outgrew the job itself and I was ready for my next venture. A few months later (Jan 2020), I decided to dabble into entrepreneurship and launch my online beauty supply since I was so passionate about the industry. Here's where I learned all about hosting, domain names, email marketing and so on. My business grew moderately... it had its challenges but I stuck with it nevertheless. Although I was this was basically a side hustle for me, the income was not going to be sustainable enough, therefore I needed to keep a full-time job which brings us to...
..the medical field! I always had an interest in the medical field as well and with my background knowledge of medical office assistance, I landed a job at a private clinic back in 2019. So now we're trying to handle two streams of income but because this role took up so much of my time, the revenue from my online beauty store slowed down significantly as I could hardly ever tend to it like I wanted to. Eventually, I closed the business (temporarily), however, I would like to reopen in the future. I may not be a direct health expert but working in the medical field has equipped me with the knowledge to be able to share tips and tricks (whether it be mental or physical) that I know people can benefit from. Just like my previous job, I mastered this role and also stayed in it for three years until...
...an in-house position at the same company opened up. This one was in the accounting field and guess what, I too had somewhat of an accounting background!😁I applied and the job was indeed mine. Now, here's where I really dived into the finance realm. While working in this role, I did lot's of research on finance. Particularly, how to become financially free. What really stood out to me was digital/affiliate marketing. I was so invested in the topic that I proceeded to take a self-paced course where I learned all about SEO, data analysis, graphic design, content creation, social media management, making money online and so much more!
The more I learned, the more excited I became about launching my business in this profession. Which brings us to...
While I liked my accounting job, I knew I didn't want to continue it for much longer. I was exhausted from the 45 minute commute to and from work everyday. The environment itself was not a healthy one at all which caused me to feel mentally and physically stressed on occasion and if we're being honest... the tasks could be extremely boring. This actually motivated me to start my blogging journey: 'Lady Social '. I wanted to develop a platform where I could connect with others while encouraging them to live a more balanced lifestyle - a job that I can do happily and flexibly. If you've made it this far, thank you for sticking to the end and I hope that you continue on this amazing journey with us!
